Using PGRs for Stretch?

Discussion in 'Advanced Growing Techniques' started by Jimster, Apr 9, 2019.

  1. Black Diesel and Train Wreck are great, but pretty short for my preferences since I have extra head room. I have been looking at PGRs to increase the stretch, allowing for a greater yield from under and from the sides of the thick canopy. Stretching would increase the yield greatly. I was considering Gibberellic Acid, but it sounds like it can cause flowers and hermies...any real experience out there?
     
  2. hi Jimster
    I don't think 'stretch' should be a problem. I would advise scrogging and longer veg times before suggesting GA. In fact, I don't want my girls to stretch too much since quality diminishes the lower you go down the bud. I find its best to fill a canopy and try to score ~10" tops all around. Here's a writeup on scrogging I put together:

    oh, and welcome to GC :pimp:

    Stretching would increase the yield greatly. .......lololol
